Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

Role of the cerebellum in postural control
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2014 In daily life, voluntary movements accompany the appropriate whole-body configurations and orientations in relation to the force of gravity. To produce skilled motor behavior, it is necessary to concurrently maintain an upright stance. There are two main
